This NCAA standout and current NBA player is the great nephew of baseball HOFer Ernie Banks. Who is he?

I know the answer, but I don't want to ruin this thread with the first response.

Dwight Thorne II from Colorado, I was reading this in a blog a few days ago actually. I maybe completely off on the name.

Just looked it up- that's correct, but I'm looking for his cousin who is the NBA right now.

This person was the number 1 pick in the NBA draft, and also Mr. Irrelevant (the final pick) in the NFL draft. Who is he?

What year?

That's an awesome question, I have no idea. I know Iverson was a "great" football player but didn't play in college so it probably wasn't him, I anxiously await the answer.

The only player in recent memory I can think of that would have went oin both is Charlie Ward, but I don't think he was first or last in either.

 

Good question

1960's. Went on to average 17 ppg for 9 years. Anyone?
